Consciousness takes up no space in your terms. It forms what space is. When consciousness needs space in which to operate, it creates space. When it is resting it does not need space and it does not create it in these terms. It becomes concentrated energy falling back in upon itself in sleep and rest. Knowledge within your brain does not take up physical space within your brain. Dreams help form your personality, but they do not take up physical space. Your personality does not take up physical space. What you are exists independently of both space and time. When you are resting between reincarnations, you rest in a dimension in terms of space and time. You come back into space and time if you desire to reincarnate. Where I am, space and time as you define it, do not exist. I can take advantage of them to some degree to speak to you, but to me they are transparent and they do not basically exist.

Now briefly, we will continue while Ruburt learns how to manipulate his controls. In dreams you communicate with your own past lives. In dreams you often know who you have been. In dreams you often realize what you have learned. In dreams you restate your challenges and problems. In waking reality, subconsciously you manipulate atoms and molecules so that they result in physical images that appear to you as permanent. They are not permanent. The atoms and molecules as you know, constantly change. But they retain enough semblance of permanency so that you can rely upon their position in space, their size and weight and their depth and physical dimension. You can agree as to their placement in space.

Now in dreams you also form your environment. The dream locations that you visit you form in precisely the same manner as atoms and molecules, but they are of briefer duration, for you do not focus your energy upon them for the same amount of physical time. These locations and these dreams appear private to you. You feel that you do not share them with any other. The fact is that you do to a certain extent share them and telepathically, dreams can be dreamed by more than one person.

The responsibility for your life and your world is indeed yours. It has not been forced upon you by some outside agency. You form your own dreams and you form your own physical reality. I told Ruburt today that God has given you the greatest of all gifts and the most awesome. He has given you what you want. The world is what you want as individuals and as races. The world is what you are. You look at the state of the world and you find the physical materialization of the inner selves which have formed it. You look at nature and you find the joy that is within you that you have also formed outward. You look at the good and it is a reflection of the good that is within you, within each individual person, multiplied outward millions of times for each individual within the planet. And there is no man that hates but that hatred is reflected outward and made physical. And there is no man that loves but that that love is not reflected outward and made physical.
